is good for SPORTS
Anko is a traditional spread of sweet azuki beans popular in Asian cuisine. Anko is a sweet alternative to jams and fruit spreads, and can be a topping for ice cream, bread, and much more.
It is a unique energy drink made from anko, which contains azuki beans grown in Hokkaido and over 99.9% pure sucrose "ONIZARA-TOU®". You can drink it during sports or training without getting your hands dirty.
theANko maintains blood glucose levels longer than sports drinks.
The "wagashi (Japanese Sweets) quality" taste, cooked by skilled artisans in a direct fire copper pot, is popular among athletes for its ease of swallowing even after strenuous exercise. And, we also guarantee you will be safe for Sports Drug Test.

Comparison of ATMT (Advanced Trail Marking Test)
After ingesting theANko,
which was
an improvement of 19'34".
This difference may be due to a sufficient increase in blood glucose level after ingestion of the ANko, whereas the increase in blood glucose level was insufficient after ingestion of sports drinks.
As a result of this study, it was concluded that theANko should be actively taken when it is necessary to attend a meeting that requires concentration on an empty stomach.
Comparison between the ANko
and sports drinks in blood glucose levels
theANko:Keeping higher
blood glucose levels
This research concludes that taking "the ANko" after practice could maintain a high blood glucose level for 7 hours after that, which means "the ANko" has proved to be a remarkably effective supplement for athletes.
It is also expected that taking "the ANko" before exercise can maintain high performance without causing hypoglycemia even in high-intensity training.
Importantly, ingesting "the ANko" does not cause any doping concerns, so it can be one of the best supplements for all people, particularly athletes.
